Restore Computer
If you
are using System Restore, you are already in a serious
recovery scenario. Windows Vista may be corrupted or infected.
The
question is: when did Windows become unstable? Choose a Restore
Point from the list, hopefully one from before the system was
trashed.

4. Restore your computer
Click on Choose a Restore Point
Review your restore point list and confirm that you have
daily scheduled Checkpoints.
DO NOT proceed. Cancel the System Restore.
Good work. That's enough for now.
